For a lack of a better way to say this, you ******* rocked my world.
You took every last piece of me and ripped it apart,
filled not only my head but also my heart
with doubt.
You clouded my senses
battered my bones
and left me completely and utterly empty.

The only source of strength within me the breath keeping me alive,
one exhale at a time.
You have shaken my confidence and uprooted my once unshakable conviction.
My world, my connections,
my sense of self.
Me.
The only place I call home now swept away and scattered by the winds of the world
whose sands will never wholly be returned to this place.

And now.
I can only hope that the pits of darkness I can barely escape from will one day be a balance to the love we will create.
And though I crave to be buried beneath the security of your arms,
I seek also the freedom of the skies,
and the escape from these ties,
that have for so long been binding me to the ground.
